I'm not sure if you saw my other thread, but I tried many fixes and ideas from members here. I appreciate the attempt at helping me, but none of the dozen ideas solved the problem. I spent several hundred dollars and many months trying to fix it. As the car was not worth many more dollars and I move...

Fixed the starting problem..
I had the car hauled away tp the junk yard...haha no more problem. Too bad nobody was able to use the thousands of dollars worth of good parts on the car. Oh well, I'm sure I'll see it again, as a can or maybe a hub cap...

Well, I guess I'm giving this thing back to the junk yard. If anyone near Vero Beach Florida wants it, let me know soon. I'm calling the junk man next week, so speak up. When it runs it shifts,steers and stops perfect. I know the history of this car for the last 10 years. It has been a daily driver....

I get spark and fuel (I don't know the pressure) the plugs get wet. The spark jumps the gap when I put the plug near a ground source. The air filter is new. I don't have a tach. The lights and bells work when you turn the key. I checked the fuses in the panel near the driver door and the 25 fuse nea...

I don't have a pressure guage. I got a regulater from one of the cars in the junk yard. This car still had the baby stroller in the back, but was crushed in on one side. It appears to have been driving when crashed so I'm assuming the regulater is good. No diference at all. It cranks, but no start. ...

no start
O.K. I started a new thread as my 1990 240 dl has changed problems on me. :shock: It started out as a stalling/running rough symtom. At that time, per advice here, I replaced both temperature sending units, removed and cleaned the TPS and the throttle body, plugs, cap, rotor, checked the plug wires ...

O.K., I have since replaced both (as long as I had the intake off) of the coolant sensors and the car runs the same. I have had two 'good' amm's on the car and it runs the same. The only improvement so far is the exhaust smells normal (not like straight gas) and the plugs look good as well. The engi...

While the engine was running, I removed one of the two ground wires near the injector rail and the engi...
